The ‘Adoring Barack Channel’ (ABC) to Give Up Prime Time for Obamacare Infomercial

The Adoring Barack Channel (ABC) has decided to give the President a spot in prime time for a propaganda infomercial on Universal DMV Care. The special will be in town hall format and be broadcast from The White House, where probing and engaging questions are sure to be flying like how Bo the dog is adjusting and if he is feeling enchanted that day. I can’t wait!

The price tag for this new venture into socialism is estimated to cost $1 trillion over 10 years, while leaving many uninsured. Because, of course, we can afford it. Yes we can!

From the Congressional Budget Office Director’s Blog:

According to our preliminary assessment, enacting the proposal would result in a net increase in federal budget deficits of about $1.0 trillion over the 2010-2019 period. When fully implemented, about 39 million individuals would obtain coverage through the new insurance exchanges. At the same time, the number of people who had coverage through an employer would decline by about 15 million (or roughly 10 percent), and coverage from other sources would fall by about 8 million, so the net decrease in the number of people uninsured would be about 16 million or 17 million.

It is true that liberty is precious; so precious that it must be carefully rationed.

A bit of history. Just before you get your pants in a huff, recall that George Bush and Dick Chenney did this several times by allowing Fox into the WH, Ranch, private quarters, and AF 1

You kinda loose credibility going off like this without recalling history ~ or maybe you support infomercials from the WH by any president.

We are not criticizing a news outlet for doing an expose of the president in the White House, of course not unless the reporter bows to him.
